About This Access Site
Freedom Landing is a public boat ramp providing access to Lee Creek and the Ohio River in Ripley, Brown County, Ohio. Located at the foot of the waterway, this launch point is ideal for kayakers, canoeists, and boaters looking to explore the Ohio River's recreational opportunities in this region. The facility includes a boat ramp designed for launching and retrieving watercraft of various sizes.

The Ohio River in this area offers boating and fishing opportunities, with Lee Creek serving as a scenic tributary perfect for paddling. The landing provides one of several public access points along the approximately 38-mile stretch of the Ohio River that borders western Brown County. Users should note that the launch area is designated for loading and unloading boats, so parking should be used appropriately. Fishing is permitted at the site, though anglers are asked to fish from the riverbank rather than from the ramp itself to keep the launch area clear for active boating operations.
